Ruffles are more beautiful when made in one piece without a seam at the shoulder. They are then cut on the fabric fold. However, for widths of 110 cm, I suggested placing the ruffles vertically because it is not possible to cut the ruffles on the fabric fold for most sizes. This is also the case with 140 cm wide fabrics for sizes 10/11/12 years. The fabric widths are not large enough. Also, this vertical placement of the ruffles on the cutting plan saves fabric consumption but requires a seam at the shoulder (so you have fabric needs in 110 cm for small sizes less than in 140 cm where the ruffles are cut on the fold and thus in one piece... you can adapt if you prefer ruffles in one piece or less fabric consumption).
